guest: reid has $1.4 trillion in anticipated cuts from the war in afghanistan and iran. that is something that has already been considered. that is not a real cut predellas already considered before. we thought that we were going to make the spending cuts earlier. so when he throws that end, it is a nonstarter. you'd take that $1.4 trillion yen has cut would only be $1.3 trillion grid and yet they would increase the debt ceiling by almost double that. we believe you do not increase the debt ceiling more than the spending cuts. that just takes us down the same road we have been on, spend more money that you take in, run the printing presses, and keep spending money. host: there are a number conservatives from the house republican study committee that says the speaker does not have my vote. i will not vote for this latest proposal. you so that you're leaning toward yes. what is your bayh's to these younger members, these freshmen members? guest: we're going to sit down as a conference and talk about this. i am one of the founders of the republican study committee. recall t

part -- the other factor is that we are now drawing down the cost of our military efforts in afghanistan and iraq. last year we spent a little over $150 billion. this year we'll spend a little over $100 billion. and the plan is to soon be down to at least $50 billion in two or three years. so over the ten-year period there'll be about eight years at nearly $50 billion or so spent on the war instead of $150 billion. that's part of thelan that we've been operating on for a long time. $150 billion for the w is not baseline expenditure of the united states. it was never projected to continue at that level, so hopefully we could bring it below $50 billion. maybe we went get to $50 billion. i don't know. but what is the reasonable estimate? i think the house republicans and the president said it would drop to $50 billion, and that would be the baseline out there for the rest of the time. that's $1 trillion. that's $1 trillion. so you take $1 trillion out of the $2.7 trillion, you're down to $1.7 trlion. and another thing that's scored in tt, since that $1 trillion in war costs is scored the wa
